Taylor Swift and Matt Healy have ‘broken up’ after realising they ‘weren’t compatible’
Insiders say both musicians are super busy and their time together has run its course.
It appears the whirlwind romance between Taylor Swift and The 1975's Matt Healy has come to an end.
Multiple entertainment sites have been reporting the two singers have called off their relationship.
A source close to one of them told PEOPLE: "She had fun with him, but it was always casual. They are no longer romantically involved."
Another insider told ET: "Taylor and Matty broke up. They are both extremely busy and realized they're not really compatible with each other.

"Taylor's friends want what's best for her and aren't shocked that their relationship fizzled out since she recently got out of a long-term relationship."
A different source confirmed to TMZ they have officially gone splitsville.
They were first linked together last month when Healy was spotted at Taylor's Nashville concerts.
The duo was photographed together and holding hands, which sparked rumors that they were romantically linked.
Matt was also seen heading into Swift's New York City apartment late at night.
Their 'relationship' came hot on the heels of Taylor and her longtime boyfriend Joe Alwyn breaking up after six years together.
The split came as a huge shock to many fans, however others feel like it was written on the wall for some time.
Swift surprised her fans by replacing a love song in the Folklore-inspired section with a break-up ballad.
For the shows in Arlington, Texas on March 31, April 1 and April 2, the singer has performed ‘The 1’ instead of ‘Invisible String’, with the former focusing on a lost love while the latter is a story about two soulmates.
In ‘Invisible String’, the Grammy-award winning artist sings: “Time, mystical time/Cuttin’ me open, then healin’ me fine/Were there clues I didn’t see?
“Isn’t it just so pretty to think/All along there was some/Invisible string/Tying you to me?”
Meanwhile, ‘The 1’ – which serves as the opening song on Folklore - is about a relationship that didn’t work out.
“But we were something, don’t you think so?/Roaring 20s, tossing pennies in the pool/And if my wishes came true/It would’ve been you,” Swift sings.
“In my defence, I have none/For never leaving well enough alone/But it would’ve been fun/If you would’ve been the one.”
The set list change didn't really ruffle any feathers amongst Swifties until news broke that Taylor and Joe had broken up.
They started connecting the dots and felt the singer was commenting on the break up via her tour.
UNILAD has reached out to Taylor's representatives for comment.
